Crisis or Anger?

I posted a blog piece the other day on facebook.  It was titled The New Midlife Crisis for Women (http://www.oprah.com/sp/new-midlife-crisis.html).  I was fascinated to learn that I AM NOT ALONE.  I have become angry.  I have become motivated.  I'm on a mission. For what, you ask?  It's not really to find happiness because overall I'm a pretty happy person.  I am in love with someone who is kind and respectful to me.  I have two children who make me laugh.  A lot.  I have lots to be happy about. But I'm also angry.  I'm tired of knowing that my male partner is treated differently that I because of his anatomy.  I'm tired of feeling like my kids are going to have to fight the same battles my mother did.  Angry over SO MUCH STUFF.  So what is my mission?  It can't be to make the world fair.  That's not going to happen.  I don't want to learn acceptance.  I'm not entirely sure what my mission is.  Maybe it's to light a fire under my girls so
